Just because your other Alveopora and Goniopora are thriving doesn't necessarily mean that this coral is also doing well; in fact, it looks bleached. I can also tell that it is not fully opened as the polyps are drawn close to the skeleton. Larger polyped flowerpots like this one tend to have more extended polyps.


It's definitely a flowerpot, judging by how it looked closed up in the first photo.
Possibly. Not rulling out the fact that it can be. But looks different from any I've ever seen before. Will give it some time. Will post again at later date.

There are also encrusting alveopora...
